The San Jose Sharks locked in another key piece for next season with the extension of restricted free agent Kevin Labanc on a one year contract with a base salary of 715,00 and 285,000 in signing bonuses for a total of 1 million dollars, per capfriendly.
The 23-year-old is coming off a career year compiling 56 points with 17 of those being goals. Labanc continues to elevate his game with more and more opportunities given to him while he gained confidence from the coaching staff.
Labanc’s season really took off after being tagged alongside Joe Thornton who’s resurgence in Teal helped guide the young winger through his 3rd official season on San Jose’s big club .
